...poets sculpt like the artists they are...


Poem Artwork


A statue,
A painting,
Or a poem,
Takes muse…

Takes thought,
Takes memories,
Takes wonder,
All this we can use…

Takes belief,
Takes relief,
Takes life,
Sometimes takes the blues…

Takes strength,
Takes weakness,
Takes love,
And sometimes it takes booze,
Think I will now take a snooze…

It takes dreams,
to be a muse,
so dream on,
while you snooze.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
